01.16.2009 15 months in jail

In April of 2008, a Dutch male model named Audun Carlsen filed charges against 80's pop icon Boy George.  Carlsen claimed George handcuffed him to a wall and beat him with a chain after a fight following a naked photo shoot.  That, as it turns out, is illegal.  You can’t handcuff naked models to a wall, regardless of how sexy it may sound.   So of course last month he was found guilty, because he did it, and today he was sentenced to 15 months in jail.  The Sun says…

Sentencing the musician Judge David Radford told the singer – real name George O'Dowd – that he was guilty of “gratuitous violence”.
Blank-faced O’Dowd glanced briefly at family members in the public gallery, who gasped as his jail term was read out.
Passing sentence, Judge Radford said: “In my view there can be no doubt that your premeditated callous and humiliating handcuffing and detention of Mr Carlsen shocked, degraded and traumatised him.
“He was deprived of his liberty and human dignity without warning or proper explanation to him of its purpose, length or purported justification.
“You assaulted the victim of this offence whom you had invited into your home by handcuffing him to your bed and inflicting on him additional wholly gratuitous violence beyond that needed merely to secure physical restraint and detention.”
Mr Carlsen, a 29-year-old Norwegian, fled in his underpants and alerted police after the attack in April 2007.

What a sexy trial.  Granted it would have been hotter had it been a naked girl model, but of course that would have had disaster written all over it.  People get all PC when you rub your crotch and moan in court during testimony.  What is the world coming too when you can’t even masturbate at an assault trial without everyone freaking out on you?

    On the positive side, it appears that he likes handcuffs, violence and gay sex so prison should pretty much work out OK for him.

    Did you hear what Carlsen said when chained to the bed by Boy George?
    “Do you really want to hurt me? Do you really want to make me cry?”

  17. Burnsy 01/16/2009 08:57

    Wow. That was brutal, Budddy.

    What are you trying to do exactly? Are you commenting or spamming bad movie rumors? Or is it a combination of both? And why do you keep repeating it?

  18. BuddyGroove 01/16/2009 09:03

    fact man. fact. and how can u call ghostbusters a bad movie?

  19. lgcjoker 01/16/2009 09:07

    Is it just me or did this judge seem to take the tone that some amount of restraint, abuse and humiliation was kosher but BG just went and took it beyond the commonly accepted limitations of BTK?

    I’m liking the British legal system more every day.

    Prove your fact then. It would be huge news if it were true, but it’s not. Add a link to it. Send it to Vince at FilmDrunk. And it’s not a bad movie, you illiterate taint, it’s a bad movie rumor.
